Camels do not store "water" in their humps that's a myth.
Camels store fat in the hump.
Camels are well known for their humps. They do not, however, store water in them as is commonly believed, though they do serve this purpose through roundabout means. Their humps are a reservoir of fatty tissue, while water is stored in their blood. However, when this tissue is metabolized, it is not only a source of energy, but yields through reaction with oxygen from the air 1,111 g of water per 1,000 g of fat converted. This allows them to survive without water for about two weeks, and without food for up to a month.
Their red blood cells have an oval shape, unlike those of other mammals, which are circular. This is to facilitate their flow in a dehydrated state. The kidneys of a camel are very efficient. Urine comes out as a thick syrup and their feces are so dry that it can fuel fires. Camels are able to withstand changes in body temperature and water content that would kill most other animals. Their temperature ranges from 34°C (93°F) at night up to 41°C (106°F) at day, and only above this threshold will they begin to sweat. This allows them to preserve about five liters of water a day. They can withstand at least 25% weight loss due to sweating.
